Underground Live!

In Underground Live! Nolan celebrates his late father's sense of humor by performing stand-up comedy among the headstones. There he meets Rebecca who has finally come to visit her late father, a talented musician. The two connect over efforts to find fitting ways to memorialize their fathers, but their connection deepens when Nolan reveals a deeper pain. Bound by fear, regret and the weight of death, they seek a path back to living by embracing the special qualities of their loved ones and animating their own lives accordingly as a living tribute.
